DESCRIPTION

The KNIGHTS OF OLD GROUP is at the cutting edge of a highly competitive industry and it continues to invest in the latest warehouse and transport management technologies. With a fleet of over 250 trucks and 300 trailers, the Knights of Old Group's services include UK and Ireland transport, European transport, Air & Ocean, logistics, export packing, full loads, same day deliveries, Supply chain management, and contract logistics. The group continues to maximise their offering to the retail and food services sectors through ongoing re-accreditation to the BRC Global Standard for Storage and Distribution. Introduced in 2006, the Global Standard for Storage and Distribution ensures best practice in the safe handling, hygiene, storage and distribution of food products and promotes continuous improvement in operating practices. First acquired in 2008, the accreditation has provided Knights of Old with far reaching benefits, new business gains and lasting strategic partnerships. As one of the first transport and logistics companies to be accredited, Knights of Old remain committed to maintaining their investment and continuing to provide their customers with a first-rate logistics service. "Our BRC accreditation has become central to our business values," says Ian Beattie, Group Managing Director, Knights of Old. "It demonstrates that the company adheres to measured set of standards and is compliant to all relevant legislation and to the BRC’s code of practice. The Knights of Old Group ethos is Service with Honour, which is a guarantee to customers, both big and small, that they will receive the very best in service and support. The group further underlines its reach as a leading transport and logistics provider by being a major shareholder in Partnerlink Ltd, a consortium of 17 privately owned logistics companies in the UK and Ireland, which recently launched Partnerlink Europe.
